SEASON PREVIEW

Ligw

With a year's experience under their belts and a talented group of newcomers, the Lady Tigers are prepared for

the challenges of the 1996 season. The outlook for the 1996 Lady Tigers has certainly come full circle since one year ago when Memphis began its first ever season of women's soccer. The U of M has made great strides since opening day 1995, which saw the Lady Tigers stumble 7-2, to the final regular season game, which Memphis won handily by a score of 10-2. The Lady Tigers hope to continue their pace of improvement throughout the upcoming 1996 season. "One objective since day one has been to improve with each game," said head coach Les Szabo. "Although we are still a young team, last year's experienced players and this year's new talent should guarantee success." The Lady Tigers are looking forward to the return of Shelley Heinz, who led Conference USA in scoring, goals and shots, and Jodi Fisher, who tied with teammate Christy Caswell for the C-USA lead in assists, to put the pressure on opposing goalies. Competing for playing time at forward will be newcomer Meredith Smith,

a 19-goal scorer each of the past two seasons at Immaculate Conception, and returnee Jessica Buttermore. "The front line will combine speed and agility to produce more scoring opportunities," Szabo said. "We hope the newcomers can step out on the field and have an immediate impact, providing some offensive presence." Possibly the most Christy Caswell made up one half of Memphis's "Canadian Connection," tying teammate Jodi Fisher for the conference stable line on the lead in assists with seven. Lady Tiger squad is the midfield, where returnees Jennifer Vossen, Caswell, Catherine Brannon and LaVonne Hill were all impact players. Joining the mix for time at midfield will be Amy Fulbright, whose quickness makes her an asset to any team.

Shelley Heinz was named first team all-conference for her stellar 1995 campaign.

"Our midfield will be the strongest line on the field, combining depth and individual talent," Szabo said. "We are looking for the experience at midfield to balance out the offensive attack." The Lady Tigers also have some experience on defense, with returnees Kara Murphy and Robin Waddell holding off opposing attacks. The loss of two starters has made room for a pair of newcomers in Lesley Zmurchuk and Nicole Kennedy to have an immediate impact. "Several newcomers could figure into the mix for roles on defense," Szabo said. "Along with our returning players, we should produce a stable back line." A knee injury to goalie S h e r r i Stamper will keep her out for a while, leaving returnee Frances Currin and newcomer Melissa Mulrooney to fight for the job in goal. "We hope our successful spring season will carry over into the fall," Szabo said. "It's just a matter now of utilizing the talent we have to the best of our abilities."

2ND SEASON VOLUNTEER ASSISTANT COACH

2ND SEASON ASSISTANT COACH

Pam Kalinoski joined The University of Memphis women's soccer staff as one of the most decorated women in NCAA soccer history. But the road to the top for Kalinoski started at the bottom - as a walk-on. Kalinoski is again accepting a great challenge in helping build the Lady Tiger soccer program. The native of North Olmsted, Ohio was named a high school ail-American her senior year in 1986. At the same time, Kalinoski also played for the East-West Soccer Club of Ohio under current U of M women's head coach Les Szabo. Upon completion of her senior season, Kalinoski hoped to receive a scholarship from perennial soccer powerhouse North Carolina. However, the scholarship offer never came through, and it was on Szabo's recommendation that Kalinoski was allowed to walk on to the Lady Tarheel squad. Kalinoski met the challenge by helping the Lady Tarheels to four undefeated seasons and four consecutive NCAA titles from 1987-1991. During that time, Kalinoski made a name for herself in the soccer community by earning a starting position in the North Carolina midfield and capturing Offensive Most Valuable Player honors at the 1991 NCAA Women's Soccer Championship Tournament. As captain of the Lady Tarheels her senior season, Kalinoski set a perfect example for players to come by finishing her campaign as the NCAA's career assists leader. Her record was broken two years later by a fellow teammate Mia Hamm. However, her name remains in the UNC record book in several categories. She is first in consecutive matches with an assist (12 matches between 10/13/91 to 11/24/91), second in career assists with 51 and second in most assists in a season with 28 assists in 1991. Kalinoski also led the team off the field, where she was named to the Atlantic Coast Conference Academic Honor Roll, the UNC Dean's List and the NCAA Freshman All-America team. Kalinoski joined the U of M staff after spending three years working in public relations in Sacramento, Calif. During what spare time she has, Kalinoski is actively involved in coaching Memphis-area youth teams and also provides specialized skill instruction at the annual U of M youth soccer camps which run for three weeks each June.

After wrapping up a stellar three-year career at The University of Memphis, Brooks Monaghan joined the Lady Tiger coaching staff as a student assistant coach. Monaghan split time last season with the men's and women's teams, and will again be called upon in 1996 to assist both programs' goalkeepers. Monaghan was a three-year starter for the Tigers after transferring from the University of Evansville following his freshman season. Monaghan, who was a prep standout for Christian Brothers High School in Memphis, returned to his hometown to become an immediate impact on The U of M program. Monaghan pushed the Tigers to their best season ever in 1992 as his stingy goaltending led Memphis to a school-best 14-3-2 record and the co-championship of the Great Midwest Conference. Of the 14 wins the Tigers posted in 1992, 11 were shutouts by Monaghan. In fact, his 11 shutouts in 1992 were the most ever in a season by a Tiger goalkeeper. Monaghan finished the 1992 season with a goals against average of 0.80. In 1993, after a disappointing regular season, Monaghan helped the Tigers to the CMC crown and the team's first ever berth in the NCAA tournament. Since that time, he has continued to play at the club and semiprofessional level, most recently with the New Orleans Gamblers of the USISL. Monaghan's success on the soccer field began during his prep playing days at Christian Brothers High School. Christian Brothers won two Tennessee state championships during his career. Monaghan was named a high school all-American after his 1991 season, and was twice named an all-state performer.

7995 REVIEW

A new chapter in Lady Tiger athletics began last season as Les Szabo and the Lady Tiger soccer team took the field for the first time. On Sept. 2, 1995, The University of Memphis women's athletic department began a new era as it kicked off its first season of Division I women's soccer. Head coach Les Szabo and his staff molded a group of young, dedicated players into a solid foundation for what appears to be a bright future. It didn't take long for the new kid on the block to pick up its first win. Just four games into their inaugural season, the Lady Tigers scored a 7-1 victory over Arkansas-Little Rock and the first win was in the record books. Jodi Fisher scored three goals and Shelley Heinz added two for the victory. On Sept. 22 the Lady Tiger soccer program proved that it would soon be a force to be dealt with, as they pulled a

stunning upset of national power Evansville. The 2-1 victory over the Purple Aces was by far the biggest moment for the U of M program. Heinz scored the opening goal on a penalty kick drawn by Christy Caswell. J e n n i f e r Vossen scored the game-winner on a cross by Caswell early in the second half. The improvement continued throughout the season, and by year's end, the Lady Tigers were finding that winning was coming on a more regular basis. The Lady Tigers won three of their final five regular season games, including an impressive 10-2 victory over crosstown rival Christian Brothers University. Jodi Fisher was just one of a handful of talented J u n i o r freshman that helped carry the team through its first Shelley Heinz season. culminated a fabulous season during the tal of 1 3 points.

Know ?

The Lady Tigers may not know just who they are up against in 1996. Five 1996 opponents did not have a women's soccer team in 1995. The remaining opponents finished the 1 995 season with a combined record of 1 1 71 33-1 3 for a .470 winning percentage.

PTS 0

Overly aggressive defense never slowed up Shelley Heinz's march to Conference USA's scoring title.

SEASON OUTLOOK

With one of its best recruiting classes in history and a returning core of veteran players, Memphis is ready to contend for the C-USA championship. After a disappointing year in the offensive half of the field, head coach Chris Bartels hit the road for a lengthy recruiting season and offseason planning. What emerged may be the Tigers' best recruiting class since Bartels' arrival. Combined with the experienced returnees at midfield and defense, the Tigers will certainly develop into a Conference USA contender. Memphis produced only 26 goals during the 1995 season while managing to rack up 46 yellow and red cards. Frustration with the team's play prompted a shift toward a more international-style game, furthered by the stellar crop of newcomers. "Our team felt miserable about last year. As far as we're concerned, there's nowhere to go but up," Bartels said. "We will be rebuilding during the fall camp, and it will not be long before we fully rebound from that injury-plagued and inconsistently played season." The Tigers return their top scorer from the past two seasons in Fergal Forde. Forde notched 18 points on nine goals in 1995 from his midfield position. The Tigers' next three highest returning scorers - Ramon Aguillon, Jeremy Tutor and Kurt Clemence - are also attacking midfielders, demonstrating significant experience and quickness at the slot. Memphis' starting four at midfield combined for 33 points. All of the Tiger forwards combined scored just 34 points. Blend into the rotation two talented Canadians in midfielder/forward Eric Munoz, a prospective national team member, and left-footed midfielder John Hormazabal, a member of Alberta's provincial championship squad, to create a midfield lineup that leaves nothing to be desired.

Jason Dunn and a host of fellow returnees will shore up Memphis' defense.

"Midfield is where all our experience is," Bartels said. "This will allow us to be more aggressive up front this season knowing that we have sol id backing at midfield." More aggressive up front is exactly what Bartels plans to accomplish. The loss of five forwards left Bartels with a lot of work to do in the offseason. Returning to the lineup will be nine-point scorer Rolando Aguillon, backed by Kwasi Luzuka and Michael Hynson. But the Tigers needed more punch, and hope to receive it from Munoz and transfer Rogerio Lima. Lima joins the Tigers after a successful stint at Centenary where his 38 points and 13 goals led the midwest region in scoring in 1994. "We had to completely rebuild our front line," Bartels said. "I wanted more firepower with a greater emphasis on attacking, which fits the skills I saw in our recruits and our returning forwards."

The lack of offensive support last season left the Tiger defense in a strenuous situation. A few injuries knocking out two starters early in the season didn't help matters any. Memphis called on a handful of young talent to fill in the gaps last season, building a foundation for a solid returning defense in 1996. Senior Johnny Neff and junior Chris Morris have both fully recovered from injuries and will return to the lineup along side junior Jason Dunn and sophomore Jody Orellana. Bolstering the lineup will be Philip Thiele, a teammate of Hormazabal on Alberta, Canada's provincial championship team, and Ryan Wilder, a versatile freshman from Memphis. "The defense is rebounding from an injury-plagued season," Bartels said. "We're looking for some consistency on defense with a lot less roster movement. The defense fell into place during spring workouts, and we hope to see continued improvement in the fall." The Tigers' last line of defense saw plenty of action in 1995. Goalkeeper Chris Green carried a 1.74 goals against average through 12 outings, including a 3-1-1 record in his final five games. Green will face tough competition this season from freshman Brian Covey, a USYSA ail-American and under-1 7 national Olympic development team pool competitor. "Chris had a strong first year. We placed him in a very difficult position and he responded well," Bartels said. "Brian Covey will challenge for the starting role in the fall. We'll just have to wait and see what type of shape our goalies are in when they return, and make a determination then." "Wait and see" sounds almost like a threat from the 1996 Tigers. 19

HEAD COACH

Entering his ninth season at the helm of The University of Memphis soccer program, Chris Bartels has become one of the most respected coaches in the collegiate ranks.

9rn SEASON

79-65-15 BOWLING GREEN ST.

1973 The five-year plan took six, but The University of Memphis head soccer coach Chris Bartels 1 plan was to build a winning program for The U of M and to lead the Tigers to national prominence in the collegiate soccer world. Under Bartels' guidance, The U of M has averaged 10 wins a season and has had justtwo losing years. One of those losing seasons came last year, as Bartelsand hisTigerteam had a rash of injuries that saw four starters lost for more than half the season. But after a banner recruiting season, Bartels looks to have hisTigerteam primed and ready to return to the winning ways it has grown accustomed to. Bartels 1 Tigers are no strangers to success. Bartels' 1992 squad posted a 14-3-2 record. The 14 wins equaled the most ever by a Tiger soccer team, and the .789 winning percentage was the YEAR best ever for a U of M club. His teams produced 1988 11 CMC all-conference selections, includingtwo 1989 CMC tournament MVPs and four all-South selections. But Bartels 1 most impressive accomplish1990 ments may be in the area of academics. 1991 Bartels not only brings the best out of his 1992 athletes on the field, but in the classroom as well. 1993 His teams have consistently been recognized by both the University and the conference for their 1994 academic achievements. The Tigers placed nine 1995 members on the Great Midwest Conference AllTOTALS AcademicTeam in 1993 and 11 in 1992. In 1992 and 1993, The U of M recognized Bartels' Tigers

as the team with the highest grade-point average. During that time, the soccer squad also had the highest graduation rate among The U of M athletic programs. Bartels eye for talent paid off in 1992, as his 1990 recruiting class, his second, led the way in earning a tie with St. Lou is University as the regular season co-champions of the Great Midwest Conference. His third recruiting class helped lead the Tigers to their first NCAA appearance. Unsatisfied with the NCAA tournament snub in 1992, despite a 14-3-2 record, Bartels and the Tigers rallied in the 1993 CMC tournament to defeat nationally ranked SLU for the CMC title and the conference's first automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. Since Bartels arrived at The U of M in 1988, he has seen major improvements in the program and the soccer faciI ities. Bartels has worked with The U of M Athletic Department, Tiger Clubs, and the Friends of Soccer club to make major improvements to Echles Field, homeoftheTigers. In 1992, all of the hard work paid off. Permanent seating was increased to 1,000 and the Tigers averaged just under 800 fans per game.

4rn SEASON ASSISTANT COACH

Toni Carbognani begins his third year as assistant soccer coach for The University of Memphis after enjoying a 1 7-year professional soccer career. Carbognani brings to the Tigers knowledge about the game of soccer that can't be bought. His abilities as a player and coach have taken him around the world and back to Memphis. Carbognani made Memphis his permanent home in 1981 when he was with the Memphis Americans of the Major Indoor Soccer League. It was there when he first met Tiger head coach Chris Bartels. Bartels was the assistant coach of the Americans when Carbognani was acquired from the New York Cosmos of the North American Soccer League. Carbognani began his soccer career at age nine with the Huracan club in Buenos Aires and stayed with them until he was 20 years old when he signed his first professional contract with Independiente, a second division team in Argentina. After three years, he was traded to San Tel mo, another second division team. In his second year with San Telmo, his team won the championship and moved to the first division where he stayed for another year until he was traded to Barcelona, Ecuador. After three years in Barcelona, Carbognani signed with the Cosmos in 1979. While in New York, he played with some of the greatest names in soccer. Pele was gone, but Franle Beckenbauer was there. Beckenbauer, a German, is the only man to ever play on and coach World Cup champions. Carlos Alberto, a former Brazilian World Cup team captain was also Carbognani's Cosmos teammate. Carbognani played on several teams in the MISL and the National Professional Soccer League before closing out his professional career in 1991 with the NPSL champion Chicago Power. Since he has been with the Tigers, The U of M has shared a Great Midwest Conference regular season championship with 10-time national champion St. Louis University, won one CMC tournament, and has been to the NCAA tournament. Carbognani also coaches the 15- and 16-year-olds of the Memphis Futbol Club that has advanced to several state tournaments. Carbognani and his wife Trisha have two sons: Dominic, 3, and Marco, 1.

IST SEASON VOLUNTEER ASSISTANT COACH

Another familiar face in the Memphis soccer community will be roaming the sidelines this season with the recent addition of Bobby Fox to the Tiger coaching staff. Fox, who was born in Arkansas yet raised in Mannheim, Germany, has been a Memphis-area club coach and player for the past four years. Fox currently serves as assistant coach for Memphis Futbol Club's uncler-20 and under-19 teams, which have found great success over the past few years. His under-20 team first tied, then defeated the Croatian National Team in July of 1996 before making the trip to the national tournament in Indianapolis. Fox moved to Germany at a young age and learned the game of soccer through the German club system. At the age of 13, he moved back to Memphis to play the next six years for the Memphis Kickers under then-assistant club coach and current Tiger assistant Toni Carbognani. During that time, he also played six years in the state Olympic Development Program, coached by none other than Chris Bartels. Although he signed a scholarship to play for The U of M, family finances required that he work through school, forcing him to cancel his commitment to the Tigers. Fox continued as a coach and player for the Kickers before moving with his new Northwest Airlines job to Minnesota. In Minnesota, Fox stayed active in soccer, playing in the Minnesota State Selects league and coaching at both the youth and adult levels. Following his work in Minnesota, Fox returned to Memphis and has found a home with the MFC and, more recently, with his former mentors - Bartels and Carbognani - at The U of M. Fox, 31, is married to Shelley Fox and is currently raising two future soccer players in daughters Dallas, 6, and Kateland, 4.

7 995 REVIEW

Injuries and offensive woes plagued Memphis during the 1995 season, but the Tigers endured and finished the season winning three of their final five games. Entering the 1995 soccer season, the outlook for the Tiger soccer team was a bright one. By the end of the 1995 season, head coach Chris Bartels was hoping to just finish the season with enough healthy bodies to fill a lineup. Injuries decimated the Tiger soccer team, e s p e c i a l l y in the defensive backfield. Bartels, who was relying on his strong defense to propel the Tigers in '95, had to mix and match to just have a defense at all. The loss of some key defenders was evident early in the season, as the Tigers allowed 21 goals in their first three losses. Injuries were not the only downfall to the Tiger unit last season. Memphis goals were hard to come by, also. Offensively, the Tigers were held in check most of the season, especially Memphis' front line performers. All the Tiger forwards combined scored just 34 points last season,while the starting four midfielders contributed 33. Despite a slow start to the season, the Tigers pulled together and battled

their way to a 31-1 record over their next five games, including two shutouts. But once again, i n j u r i e s struck the Tigers, this time claiming the heart and soul of the Tiger defense. Junior defender Johnny Neff was knocked out for the remainder of Scott Grant and his fellow seniors were called upon to serve the season several roles in 1995. a g a i n s t Marquette.

JIM McCAGE MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP The Tim McCage Memorial Scholarship is awarded to the University of Memphis' outstanding signee from the West Tennessee area. The scholarship is endowed by the McCage family and the Memphis soccer community and is named after Timothy Ireland McCage, a 1990 U of M signee who lost his life in an accident after his freshman season. While playing at The U of M, McCage competed in one match where he scored a goal and added an assist. In McCage's four-year Craigmont High School career, he scored 59 goals and assisted on 40 others in leading his teams to a 1990 Memphis City Championship and Tennessee State championships in 1986, '87 and '89. In his senior year he had outstanding matches against White Station and Raleigh-Egypt as he scored three and four goals, respectively. McCage also led his team to wins in the Germantown Invitational Tournament in Germantown, Tenn., and Lafayette Octoberfest Tournament in Lafayette, La. Individual honors garnered by McCage included being named the first recipient of the Peter Cardosi Sportsmanship Award in the Germantown (Tenn.) Invitational. He was Craigmont's leading scorer, MVP and varsity captain three consecutive years. In addition to soccer, McCage lettered as a kicker for two years for the Chiefs football team, and he recorded 23 extra points and nine field goals.

*Bold face indicates active players.

Did You Know ? The Tigers can never be accused of creating an easy schedule. Memphis' 1996 opponents completed the 1995 season with a combined record of 162-139-32 for a .535 wining percentage. Only six teams carried a losing record.

Rolando Aguillon made a name for himself in 1995 with his allout effort on Memphis' front line. 41

MEMRH IS

THE PRESIDENT

^>0^

In his five years as president of The University of Memphis, Dr. V. Lane Rawlins has instituted positive changes in the areas of academics, administration and student affairs at the University. Further, he has gained the support of leaders from businesses, the campus and community in charting The U of M's path for the future. Under Dr. Rawlins' guidance, the University has put greater emphasis on innovative undergraduate education, on excellence in research and graduate education, on interpersonal communication and understanding, and on improving the internal workings of the University. Task forces that he has appointed have created fresh approaches to diversity, public image, planning and budgeting, research and scholarship, enrollment management, technology, and undergraduate education. One of the most important - and certainly the most visible-of Dr. Rawlins' accomplishments has been the completion of the $26 million, 800,000-volume, computer-rich Ned R. McWherter Library. But the president's activities have not been limited to the campus. He also represents the University in the community, serving on a number of boards, a few of which include the Memphis Area

Chamber of Commerce, Leadership Memphis, Goals for Memphis, Memphis Partners and Free the Children. In a wider venue, he was instrumental in the formation of Conference USA, a 12-member all-sports conference, and served as chairman of the Board of Directors in its first year. Before coming to Memphis, Dr. Rawlins was vice chancellor of Academic Affairs for the University of Alabama system. Earlier he had spent 17 years at Washington State University, rising from an assistant professor of economics to chairman of the economics

department to vice provost. The Rigby, Idaho, native earned his Bachelor of Science degree in economics from Brigham Young University in 1963 and his doctorate in economics from the University of California at Berkeley in 1969. He has served in research positions with the Brookings Institute and the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, and as a consultant to the U.S. Dept. of Labor and the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education. A widely published author, Dr. Rawl ins has co-authored two books dealing with public service employment, written portions of 10 other books, and published a number of articles in professional journals. He is a member of Blue Key honorary fraternity, Omicron Delta Epsilon, Omicron Delta Kappa, Phi Kappa Phi and the Alabama Academy of Sciences. Dr. Rawlins and his wife, Mary Jo, have three children and six grandchildren.

ATHLETIC DIRECTOR

^>6cce.

R.C. Johnson, who has worked for the past 25 years in athletic administration and most recently served as the Athletic Director at Temple University, was named the Director of Athletics at The University of Memphis on December 29, 1995. Johnson replaced Charles Cavagnaro, who resigned in June to accept a similar position at UNLV. "Clearly, R.C.Johnson is one of the premier athletic directors in the country," said University of Memphis President Dr. V. Lane Rawlins. "We were seeking an individual with people skills, as well as a deep caring about studentathletes and their futures. "We searched long and hard for someone whom we felt had the talents to fit The University of Memphis and the Memphis community, someone who was well respected in NCAA circles. We checked every resource that was available and feel that we could not have found a more qualified individual with a better record." Upon arrival at The University of Memphis, Johnson introduced himself to members of the athletic department staff and immediately set out to meet Tiger supporters, community members, athletes and fans. His strong public relations background has placed Johnson in front of numerous local and area civic organizations since his arrival. He additionally has started a campaign to add a new 8,000-square-foot football and basketball office complex to the current Athletic Office Building, a new basketball practice facility that will be located adjacent to the HPER Building on Echles Street and a complete renovation of the Murphy Athletic Complex on Memphis' south campus. He has conducted several meetings with the Memphis Park Commission to add a greater presence for the Tigers in Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium. Numerous signs will appear in the Liberty Bowl this fall indicating that the stadium is the "home of the Tigers." Johnson was responsible for directing a program with more than 500 student-athletes in 20-men's and women's intercollegiate sports, including nationally visible programs in men's basketball and football. He was named 48

Temple's director of athletics on May 9, 1994, after a national search. The former Temple athletic director enjoys a reputation for building private and corporate support for intercollegiate athletics and for developing strong academic services for student-athletes. Highlights of his tenure at Temple include: the origination of a StudentAthlete Advisory Committee; the origination of the Athletic Director's Honor Roll for student-athletes; the reorganization of the Athletic Department infrastructure; chamng the Atfantic (U Conference Membership Committee and representing the Big East Conference on the Gender-Equity Task Force. Johnson was hired at Temple after nearly six years as director of athletics at Miami (Ohio) University. During his tenure at Miami University, Johnson was responsible for numerous programs that enhanced the stature and image of the Ohio institution. He developed the Red and White Club at Miami, which was a national booster organization, and established the Endowment for Excellence Program, which set up an endowment for a coach's position at $1,000,000 and for a player's scholarship at $200,000. Johnson was also responsible for setting up a three-year radio contract for men's football, basketball and ice hockey. A strong believer in a quality education for student-athletes, Johnson

emphasized academic integrity and excellence during his time at Miami University. At the time he departed for Temple, Miami University had 15 student-athletes with a perfect 4.0 GPA, 62 student-athletes with a 3.50 or better GPA and 191 student-athletes with a 3.00 GPA or better. Before becoming athletic director at Miami University, Johnson was athletic director at Eastern Illinois from 1980-88. He was the associate athletic director at Northern Iowa from 1974 to 1980. A former football coach himself, Johnson served as an assistant football coach at Mankato State University from 1968-74. He coached at Youngstown State University during the 1967 and 68 seasons. Prior to joining the staff at Youngstown State, Johnson served as an assistant coach at Northern Iowa for two years (1965-67) and the University of Iowa (1963-65). A native of Ottawa, III., Johnson has his bachelor's degree in sociology from the University of Iowa and a master's in physical education from the University of Northern Iowa. He is a member of the NCAA, the National Association of College Directors of Athletics, the National Collegiate Athletic Association Communications Committee, the Conference USA Expansion Committee, the College Football Association Board of Directors and the NCAA Division 1-A Athletic Directors' Association. Johnson and his wife Melba have three children, sons Jeff, who is a member of the Miami (Ohio) football team, and Paul and a daughter named Michelle.

ATHLETIC FACILITIES

The 62,380-seat Liberty Bowl serves as the home of Tiger football.

The University of Memphis Tiger athletic family has many places to call home for intercollegiate athletics. In 1970, the University of Memphis Athletic Department officially opened the Kennedy Sportsplex, a 140-acre complex located just south of the main campus. The complex serves as the home of the Tiger football, baseball, soccer and track teams and offers workout facilities for all U of M sports. Since that time, however, the facility has taken on a new name and is now called the Billy J. Murphy Complex. The complex was renamed in honor of former Memphis head football coach and athletic director Billy J. Murphy. The main building at Murphy Complex features a newly renovated 50-yard indoor practice field with an artificial surface. This field is used by the soccer and football teams for workouts when

the weather prohibits outdoor practices, and is also used by the baseball team for winter workouts. Also housed in the main building is a modern, well-equipped training room, the football equipment room, the football locker room, sauna and steam rooms and film and meeting rooms, as well as locker rooms for the baseball and track teams. Located behind the main build ing are four outdoor football fields, used for fall and spring practices. The new Billy J. Murphy Weight Training facility opened in January of 1993 and is now in use by all University of Memphis student-athletes. The 10,500 square-foot facility is one of the largest of its kind in the country and features the latest in strength training equipment. The weight room is equipped with 10 selfcontained Olympic platforms and power racks, a plyometric/ medicine ball area, a complete dumbbell line (up to 150 Ibs

CONFERENCE USA

^C Conference USA (C-USA), one of the nation's newest intercollegiate athletic conferences, has blasted off to a great start in its inaugural season of competition. C-USA consists of 12 universities and spans 12 states across the United States, more than any other Division 1-A conference. Conference USA is comprised of UAB, Cincinnati, DePaul, Houston, Louisville, Marquette, Memphis, UNC Charlotte, Saint Louis, South Florida, Southern Mississippi and Tulane. Eleven of the institutions began athletic participation in 1995, while Houston will join competition this fall. The conference officially unveiled its name, logo and commissioner on April 24, 1995 at Harry Caray's Restaurant in Chicago. Michael L. Slive was named the first commissioner of Conference USA by the presidents of the 12 institutions. Conference USA sponsors 18 sports, including Division 1-A football, which begins play this fall. The league sponsors championship competition in the following men's sports: baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, soccer, tennis and track and field (indoor and outdoor). C-USA also will sponsor the following women's sports: basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, tennis, track and field (indoor and outdoor) and volleyball. Rifle is sponsored as a coed sport. This fall, six member institutions, Cincinnati, Houston, Louisville, Memphis, Southern Mississippi and Tulane, will compete for the first Conference USA football championship. Each school will play five conference games, with the regular season champion earning an automatic berth to the St. Jude Liberty Bowl. Conference USA also has a five-year football television contract with Liberty Sports, which takes advantage of the fact that 11 of the 12 C-USA television markets rank among the top 50 nationally, and two (Chicago & Houston) are in the ten largest markets. In men's basketball, Conference USA is comprised of three divisions, Red, White and Blue. The 1996 men's basketball season produced six

postseason teams (four NCAA and two NIT) and by season's end, C-USA was ranked as the fourth best conference in the nation by the RPI. The conference will embark on its second season of a six-year basketball television agreement with Creative Sports and ESPN. Women's basketball, which also has a three-division format, is coming off a memorable first season, as well. Four C-USA teams earned NCAA Tournament bids, the third highest among Division 1-A conferences. Other Conference USA accomplishments during the inaugural season included member institutions receiving bids to the NCAA Soccer championships, NCAA Volleyball championships, NCAA Golf championships and the NCAA baseball tournament. As further evidence of the young league's stature, Conference USA has been designated as one of the eight equity conferences in the proposed new NCAA Governance structure that will take the lead in decision making for college athletics.

MEMPHIS ^?c When the University of Memphis first fielded a football team in the fall of 1 91 2, no one had selected a nickname for the squad. Early references to the football team, tabbed them only as the Blue and Gray Warriors of West Tennessee Normal School. After the final game of the 191 4 season, there was a student parade. During this event, several Normal students shouted, "We fight like Tigers". The nickname was born. More and more the nickname "Tigers" was used, particularly in campus publications. But it did not catch on with the newspapers downtown. They continued to use "Normals" or the "Blue and Gray" when referring to the University. Under coach Lester Barnard in 1922, Normal's football team gave a ring of truth to that old student yell about Tigers. The team adopted a motto - "Every Man A Tiger" and went on to score 174 points while allowing their opponents just 29 points. In the late 1920s, student publications and downtown newspapers began referring to the football team as the "Teachers" or "Tutors". The Tiger nickname would return. But not until 1 939 was it finally adopted as the official nickname for the University of Memphis.

For approximately 22 years, the sideline mascot for the University of Memphis athletics has been the Bengal Tiger. TOM II, the name of the current mascot, puts in personal appearances at all Tiger football games, as well as numerous basketball games. TOM II has also been seen at Tiger basebal I, soccer and women's basketball games. The first tiger, purchased by the Highland Hundred (football booster group) in 1972, lived for 20 years and was housed at the Memphis Zoo. TOM died in February of 1992. The story of how the first Tiger cub arrived in Memphis is quite interesting.

On November 9, 1972, the baby tiger was placed in a dog kennel in Michigan City, IN, and flown to Chicago's O'Hare International Airport. There it was placed aboard a Delta flight and arrived in Memphis at 3:00 AM. C. Cleveland Drennon, an attorney and president of the Highland Hundred, approved a check for $ 1,500 to buy the animal, and TOM was taken to athletic director Billy Murphy's office for a press conference. In ceremonies at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium, the Highland Hundred officially presented TOM to the University on November 11,1972. The zookeeper, at the suggestion of his daughter, called the little tiger, Shane. Once in Memphis, however, a contest was held to name the mascot. More than 2,500 entries came in to a committee chaired by Judge Harry Pierotti. The list ran from Spook, Sampson, Goliath, Bengo, Sultan, Sahib, Big Cat, Ptah, Touchdown, Sonny, and Shiloh to Bengie Wougie Bengal Boy from Tennessee. Finally, the judges reduced the list to two: Shane and TOM, for Tigers of Memphis. TOM won. During his first few months in Memphis, Bill Proctor housed the tiger in his garage, which was redecorated by the Highland Hundred. TOM was guarded by Proctor's hound dog. TOM II came to the University of Memphis in the fall of 1992 and is

housed at his new home at Nixon Farms in Collierville, TN. His new home is 3500 square feet and includes two pools, a waterfall, heated and air conditioned den box and has separately, a complete medical facility for his care and upkeep. The young tiger is nearly 500 pounds and is expected to be as large or larger than his predecessor, TOM, who was once the largest Bengal Tiger in captivity at 550 pounds.

The University of Memphis' official school colors of Royal Blue and Gray were selected in the early 1 900s. The colors were chosen in an effort to show unity in a nation that was still recovering from the effects of the Civil War. The student body thought that by picking the colors of the North and the South, the school would show a togetherness among all students.

The University of Memphis' official logo was designed by Craig Thompson, from Disciple Design in Memphis. The original logo was an MSU with a leaping tiger coming out from behind the letters. The new logo is an "M" with a leaping tiger coming up over the center of the "M". 55
